The purpose of these General Terms and Conditions of Sale is to establish the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the sale of products by the company GLB “Parfums Molinard,” a simplified joint-stock company with a capital of 1,050,000 euros, with registered offices located at 60 Boulevard Victor Hugo, Grasse, France (06130), registered in the Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés de Grasse (Grasse trade register) under number 326 815 370 (hereinafter “Molinard”) to the consumer (hereinafter “the Purchaser”) via the commercial website developed by Molinard that is accessible at the address www.molinard.com (“the Site”).

The act of ordering a product for sale on the Site by any person implies acceptance of these terms and conditions, which the Purchaser acknowledges having read and understood prior to placing her/his order.

The Purchaser attests:

that the purchases that s/he makes on the Site are in no way connected with her/his professional activity or business;

that s/he has the necessary authorization(s) to use the payment means selected during the order confirmation process;

that s/he has sufficient legal capacity to commit to the purchases being made on the Site.

Molinard reserves the right to modify these General Terms and Conditions of Sale at any time. Nevertheless, the conditions applicable to the order placed by a Purchaser are those accepted by the Purchaser at the time her/his order is placed and recorded.

The Purchaser may save or print these General Terms and Conditions of Sale for reference, provided that s/he does not modify them.

Article 2 - Offers

The products offered for sale by Molinard are those listed on the Site on the day the Site was browsed by the Purchaser, and based on the supplies available. Should any of the Products be unavailable for purchase or out of stock, the Purchaser will be informed no later than the time of the order’s delivery.

Article 3 – Prices

All orders, wherever they may have originated from and whatever their place of delivery, are payable in euros.

The prices include possible reductions as well as the Value-Added Tax (VAT or TVA) applicable on the day of the order.

The prices indicated on the Site are guaranteed until the expiration date indicated in the offer.

Prices shown do not include postage and packaging costs, which will be added to the price of the goods.

Any promotional offers granted in the form of coupons are only good for use on one order per household and during a given validity period.

Should an order come from a country other than metropolitan France, the Purchaser is deemed to be the importer of the product(s) concerned. For all products shipped outside the European Union and overseas territories and departments (DOM-TOM), the price will be automatically calculated without VAT (resulting in the pre-tax price, or hors taxe) on the invoice. Customs duties or other local taxes or import duties or state taxes may be due on the shipment. These rights and sums are not the responsibility of Molinard and will be the responsibility of the Purchaser. They are the sole responsibility of the Purchaser in terms of both declarations and payments to the competent authorities and bodies of the country concerned.

Molinard recommends that the Purchaser learn about such responsibilities and charges from the competent local authorities.

The Purchaser accepts and agrees that Molinard reserves the right to modify its prices at any time. Nevertheless, the products will be invoiced based on the rates in force at the time the order was placed and recorded, while remaining subject to the availability of said products.

Article 4 – Order placement and acceptance

4.1. Order placement

If the Purchaser wishes to place an order, s/he must choose the various products of interest to her/him, select from among the proposed packaging options, specify the desired quantity, and add them to her/his online basket.

The Purchaser may, at any time, see a summary of the products s/he has selected; continue selecting other products, or conclude her/his product selection and place the order.

To order the selected products, after having reviewed and confirmed her/his basket, every Purchaser must identify herself/himself, either by entering her/his email address and password, if s/he has already created an account on the Site, or by completing the online registration form to open an account. In the latter case, the Purchaser must accurately fill out the form provided online, in which s/he will include the information necessary for her/his identification, including her/his last name (surname), first name (given name), and postal address. Further, the Purchaser must provide her/his email address and a personal and confidential password that s/he will need to log onto the Site in the future. The Purchaser is informed and agrees that entering these two identifying elements – the email and password – serves as proof of her/his identity. Once the Purchaser has been identified and is logged on, s/he must confirm the delivery address, and then a summary of her/his order will appear on the screen.

4.2. Final order approval

After having reviewed the status of her/his order, and once all the requested information has been provided by the Purchaser, the Purchaser will click on the payment method s/he has chosen to use, so as to definitively confirm her/his order.

4.3. Order confirmation

Once s/he has approved her/his method of payment (and, if necessary, provided her/his credit card or debit card number and expiration date), a summary of the Purchaser’s order will be displayed, including the transaction number. A confirmation email will be sent to the Purchaser once her/his order is placed.

Article 5 – Payment

The amount owed by the Purchaser is the amount indicated on the order confirmation sent to the Purchaser by email by Molinard. As specified in Article 4.2 above, during the order-confirmation process, the Purchaser will have a choice of several payment methods. As such, unless the server is unavailable, the payment may be made in one of several ways:

Online payment by credit/debit card: The Purchaser may pay for the order directly on the Site with her/his credit/debit card (Mastercard, Visa, American Express). During the final order confirmation phase, the Purchaser enters the number of her/his credit/debit card, as well as its expiration date and the cryptogram on the back of the card (last three digits located on the signature panel). The Purchaser will never be asked to provide her/his confidential code for the card and should never submit that code.

This information is entered in encrypted fields and all transmitted information is coded. None of the Purchaser’s information goes across the Internet unencrypted.

Payment by check: The Purchaser may send a check in euros, drawn on a French bank, to the order of “Molinard” and sent by post to the address 60 Bvd. Victor Hugo, BP 94210 - 06131 Grasse CEDEX, France, indicating the date and order number assigned to her/him online. In the event that the Purchaser chooses to pay by check, the order will only be definitively confirmed once the check has been deposited and cleared. In any case, Molinard reserves the right to refuse any order or delivery in cases of (i) an existing dispute with the Purchaser, (ii) total or partial non-payment of a previous order by the Purchaser (iii) the credit/debit card being declined by the bank, or (iv) non-payment or partial payment.

Molinard will not be held liable in any way, in any of these circumstances.

Article 6 - Delivery

6.1. Shipping time

Once the order has been fully paid for, the parcel is dispatched within 72 hours to the address provided by the Purchaser when placing the order. Orders placed on a Friday after 12:00 p.m. (noon), however, will be processed within 48 hours as of the following Monday. Payment by credit card ensures the swiftest processing of the order.

6.2. Delivery time

6.3. Delivery acceptance conditions. Upon receipt of the order, the Purchaser will inspect the parcel to ensure that the Products received are those ordered and are undamaged.

The Purchaser must also submit a claim within five (5) business days of receipt of the package to the Molinard Customer Service Department by post addressed to Service Clients at GLB SAS Parfums Molinard - 60 Bvd Victor Hugo - BP 94210 - 06131 Grasse CEDEX, France, or by email to info@molinard.com. Any claim made after this time period will be rejected and Molinard will be released from any liability. Molinard reserves the right to ask the Purchaser to return the damaged product(s). If the aforementioned conditions are met, then Molinard will either exchange or refund the damaged product(s) or reship the missing product (subject to the merits of the Purchaser’s claim).

Article 7 – Right to Contract Withdrawal/Product Return

In application of the provisions of Article L12-20 of the French Consumer Code, the Purchaser has a legal period of fourteen (14) clear days to return, at her/his expense, the Product(s) that s/he ordered if s/he does not find it/them suitable or satisfactory.
